can you lose belly fat with oranges

We all know that true beauty comes from within but, at the same time, we can’t help wanting to look the very best we can. So let's explore how this Sicilian fruit can help you lose weight.

But first: What is Morosil®?

Morosil® is a natural ingredient developed to help with targeted fat burning (in the belly area) and weight managementMorosil® comes from the Moro variety of blood oranges (red oranges), believed to have originated in Sicily at the beginning of the 19th century.

Blood oranges are very picky when it comes to growth conditions. They flourish in the rich and fertile volcanic soils around Mount Etna, and due to their mysterious looks, flavour and benefits, they are known to be more expensive than regular oranges.

The blood orange gets its name from its scarlet, blood-coloured flesh. It is packed with anthocyanins, a group of antioxidants, which can be found in purple, red, and blue fruits and veggies. 

Moro red oranges became famous for their stronger flavour and more pleasant citrusy scent than other types in the orange family. But they skyrocketed in popularity when the world recognised the weight loss potential in Morosil® .

A study has confirmed that, if regularly used, Morosil® is able to give incredible results in 12 weeks (that's only 3 months!) :

  • Participants lost up to 3 kg of weight
  • Participants reduced their waist size by up to 7.5 cm
  • Participants decreased their hip size by 6 cm

Scientifically proven effect on weight loss

Blood oranges have many benefits besides having the catchiest name. They are packed with anthocyanins, which may help prevent inflammation and benefit your memory and brain health in general. As well as other citruses, blood oranges are rich in vitamin C, which protects you from oxidative stress and has a role in transforming food into energy.

Surprisingly, they also have high amounts of folic acid, which is essential for the immune system and reduces tiredness and fatigue. Lastly, vitamin A transforms white fat tissue (the one you don’t want) into brown fat tissue (the one that helps you burn calories).

So, if your belly and hips drive you nuts, Morosil®  Sicilian red orange extract may help you lose that unwanted weight.

Initially, researchers tested the effects of Morosil® on weight loss in a six-month study. The study’s conclusion revealed that the group that consumed Moro blood orange extract succeeded in achieving a healthier body mass, lower BMI, better fat distribution, and smaller waist and hip size.

If this proof wasn’t enough, they did another study. In this one, participants consumed 400 mg of Morosil® daily for three months (12 weeks). And as expected, they lowered their BMI and lost 4% of their weight!

But there’s one thing you have to remember! Those participants also made some healthy lifestyle choices, such as exercise and calorie reduction.

No magic potion can make your fat vanish into thin air; there are only high-quality extracts that speed up the process and help you see results faster.

And Morosil® has been proven to be the best of the best.

How to lose weight fast: 7 tricks 

We know how bad it feels when you’re not confident in your body. Everyone is searching for tips on how to burn fat, but it’s not always the best choice to listen to your coworker – it might work for her, but not for you.

We looked far and wide for a solution that would help you lose any extra pounds, and we've selected 7 of the best.

1. Get enough sleep. (and no, 5 hours of sleep isn’t enough). Although you’re constantly hustling, avoiding sleep can cause a lack of concentration, consuming more calories, and the only thing you gain is weight. It would help if you strived to get at least 8 hours of sleep a night.

2. Drink one glass of wine, not two. Alcohol has many unnecessary calories that can contribute to accumulating belly fat while you’re having a good time. Instead of drinking multiple alcoholic drinks (which are often full of sugar), try to limit yourself to one drink or just order a lemonade and show the group how it’s done.

3. Eat lots of fibre, such as fruits, veggies, legumes, and oats. Soluble fibre absorbs water in your body and makes you feel fuller. The easiest way is to include it in every meal – oats in the morning, spinach for lunch, and a salad for dinner.

4. Cardio all the way. Cardiovascular exercise, such as walking, jogging, hiking, and even cycling and rollerblading, is the most efficient activity to burn upper belly fat and lower belly fat. Try to include it in your daily routine, even if it’s just a brisk walk.

5. Lifting weights is the go-to for building muscle in your belly and thighs (and it’s also the fastest way to burn calories). Strength training can help you sculpt your whole body, and you can even do it at home! Search YouTube for some home workout videos, and you may be surprised by the results of those exercises.

6. Take a break from sugar and trans fats. Sugary drinks and salty snacks are packed with calories. One sweet drink has as many calories as a whole meal, so avoid them for at least one month, and you’ll understand why you weren’t losing weight even though you weren't eating so much.

7. Try supplements with Morosil®  for targeted fat-burningSome natural extracts with fat burning properties can be concentrated in the form of supplements to help you stimulate your metabolism and trigger the process of thermogenesis (i.e. the autonomous burning of fat and calories). And Morosil® is one of them.
